A Winnipeg police vehicle is photographed at a scene in Winnipeg, Tuesday, Nov. 19, 2024. THE CANADIAN PRESS/David Lipnowski The Winnipeg Police Service is searching for a suspect after an 18-year-old man was attacked outside a Winnipeg convenience store earlier in July. Around 4:30 a.m. on July 13, police were called to the 800 block of Selkirk Avenue where they found the victim lying outside a convenience store. Police noted he was bleeding profusely and suffering from life-threatening injuries. The victim was taken to the hospital in critical condition and has since been upgraded to stable condition. Officers contained the area and spoke with people at the scene. Investigators determined the victim, who was with a teenage girl at the time of the attack, approached a man riding a bicycle to ask for money for the store. Police allege that without warning, the suspect attacked the victim with a machete and then rode off on his bike. A person in a car stopped to help and called 911. Another person also stopped and provided medical care until the arrival of paramedics. Police describe the suspect as a man on a BMX-style bicycle. He had a black backpack and was wearing a ballcap that may have had a white NY Yankees logo on the front. He was last seen heading down Selkirk Avenue toward Main Street. The major crimes unit is investigating. Anyone with information, including video surveillance, is asked to call police at 204-986-6219 or Crime Stoppers at 204-786-8477.

THE CANADIAN PRESS/David Lipnowski The Winnipeg Police Service has made an arrest after a pair of transit supervisors were attacked over the weekend. The incident took place just after 5:30 p.m. on Saturday when the Winnipeg Transit supervisors got on a bus near Fort Street and Graham Avenue to check on the well-being of a man who was sleeping.

The 23-year-old suspect has been charged with two counts of assaulting a peace officer. Transit supervisors are designated as special constables and carry the powers and protections of a peace officer while performing their duties.
